Another Brick in the Wall

A dynamic system intended for primary schools, ‘Another Brick in the Wall’ is meant to become an integral part of the architecture. It transforms the static structure of a wall into a fluid construction where children on both sides of the wall can interact with each other. Playing on the notions of open and closed, transparency and visibility, the structure functions as both a boundary and a border. The modular cork bricks of which the structure consists can be removed and used in order to create different objects within a space. In this way a direct relation is created between the wall and the objects created from it. The more bricks removed, the more transparent the structure becomes.
